Droplets begin as spherical shape before the influence of gravity determines their subsequent shape. Droplets of a liquid that are small enough evade the influences of gravity to the minimalist, due to their small surface area, hence maintains their spherical shape. As the droplet gets bigger, the increasing interfacial tension by gravity causes the internal pressure of the droplet to rise causing them to change shape vis-à-vis their viscosity.

In the case of liquid droplets, including water, surface tension is the factor, which is accountable for their shapes and configuration. Though can easily be malformed, the droplets of water seem to be pulled into a spherical shape due to the cohesive forces of the surface layer.

In the non-existence of other forces, involving gravity, the drops of almost all the liquids would be almost spherical.

Answer:

Repairing ability and homeostasis causes the injured parts to return back to uninjured.

Explanation:

Due to repairing ability of levels of organization in the body helped the injured parts to return back uninjured. Yes, homeostasis that is present in and between cells help to return organ systems back to homeostasis or equilibrium state of the body. Our body has the ability to main homeostasis whenever some disturbance occur in the body. If this homeostasis not present our body, there will be no repairing of damaged occurs.

One way to reduce water at home is to run the washing machine only when you have a full load

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Each time you start the laundry, the same amount of water will be used (unless the machine is higher tech). If you only wash when you have a full load, you will wash fewer times in your life, thus saving water.
